Hollow Clipz Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Man the 555s were so popular in source. I guess they still got that same awesomeness in GO too Klipsch is still a great brand though. Got me some for my phone (so luck payed 30 for a 120 dollar pair of in ear buds) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.J. Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Check out this guide from Head-fi.org: [url="http://www.head-fi.org/t/618255/check-out-the-head-fi-summer-2012-buying-guide"]http://www.head-fi.org/t/618255/check-out-the-head-fi-summer-2012-buying-guide[/url] There is a gaming section in there, but you'll get way more bang for the buck by going with a set of regular (music) cans and a clip-on mic like the Zalman. For pure gaming and no music listening, I personally would not spend any more than $114 for the cans in my previous post (Audio Technica ATH-M50). Anything more is just a waste for gaming use. Put that money into a better video card instead! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ληςяу εуεѕ Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I use Bose QC3s. I splurged one year with my Christmas money and got a good headset that I could use ALL the time.

Hollow Clipz Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 I can't support getting beats.. I just can't. What is your spending limit and i'm assuming you need a mic too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAYkr Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 $200. Need something all around. I been doing a lot of reading and seems like people who knows about headphones are 100% aganist beats. I been looking into grado but I'm open to others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SylenT Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Well I'd like to get some headphones again but I'm not willing to spend nearly that much money. Got any ideas? Best bang for the $$$?

Hollow Clipz Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 you didnt right down a number though.. budget is really important because we kind of need to know how much you're thinking. Is a $100 good or something less than that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like AT (obviously I have some myselfs) Look at those klipsch dista posted too those things are nice as well. [/quote] klipsch is the way to go. just about everything they make is golden.

SylenT Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Definitely less than $100. Sorry lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dista Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Got my klipsch . Sound great, mic works perfectly , but have to send them back lol. Seems like something broke off in one of the headphone and now it bounces around inside when I move ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dista Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 SylenT u definitely can find a good deal on some decent headphones under 100$ online . Don't even think off buying from best buy . It is a rip off R u looking for a headset or just headphones . Though I have to RMA my Klipsch but I figured it would be a great deal . U can use them with yr phone, I pad plus u can use it as a headset too but u ll need adapter for the mic and they r only 75 $ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.J. Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 If it's gotta be under a Franklin, this is probably the best choice: [url="http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-HD-280-Pro-Headphones/dp/B000065BPB/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1349314652&sr=8-1&keywords=Hd280"]http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-HD-280-Pro-Headphones/dp/B000065BPB/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1349314652&sr=8-1&keywords=Hd280[/url] Or for well under $50, the best is: [url="http://www.amazon.com/Audio-Technica-ATHM30-ATH-M30-Professional-Headphones/dp/B00007E7C8/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1349314850&sr=1-1&keywords=audio+technica+headphones"]http://www.amazon.com/Audio-Technica-ATHM30-ATH-M30-Professional-Headphones/dp/B00007E7C8/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1349314850&sr=1-1&keywords=audio+technica+headphones[/url] The above cans are a steal considering how good they sound. Again though, if you can justify spending $115 on Amazon, the Audio Technica ATH-M50's are amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SylenT Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 So I meant to get these Audio-Technica ATH-M30: [url="http://www.amazon.com/Audio-Technica-ATHM30-ATH-M30-Professional-Headphones/dp/B00007E7C8/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1349314850&sr=1-1&keywords=audio+technica+headphones"]http://www.amazon.com/Audio-Technica-ATHM30-ATH-M30-Professional-Headphones/dp/B00007E7C8/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1349314850&sr=1-1&keywords=audio+technica+headphones[/url] But my girlfriend accidentally got the ATH-M40fs for xmas: [url="http://www.amazon.com/Audio-Technica-ATH-M40FS-Professional-Precision-Headphones/dp/B0002D03ZW"]http://www.amazon.com/Audio-Technica-ATH-M40FS-Professional-Precision-Headphones/dp/B0002D03ZW[/url] Pretty badass so far and it definitely has helped me step up my game. I forgot how awesome it was to hear everything. Only knock I have on them is that the 1/4" end is not an adapter its actually the end. So I had to go buy a 1/4" to 1/8" adapter at Radio Shack. Highly recommend these for anyone looking for a cheaper headset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
